With the right therapist, remarkable change can happen.

I've been the right fit for many clients, and I've had the privilege of joining them in their journeys from being stuck, sometimes with painfully low self-worth, sometimes hopelessness, shame or confusion, and I've seen them rediscover their value and their voice, begin to make sense of their past, and build a new foundation to help guide them into the future.

Registered member 412001 of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).
I’m Dave Shepherd and I've been a qualified therapist based in Hull, in the north of England since early 2025. I hold a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling from Beverley College and set up my own private practise in Feb 2026.
Between 2024 and mid 2025 I provided free counselling sessions for client of Giroscope in Hull (a housing co-operative) and OSHI (an addiction service).
CLIENT FEEDBACK
“You're not sitting there with a clipboard judging me, you're like a normal human being, actually listening and talking to me... having a conversation... that's what I like."
CLIENT FEEDBACK
"If you'd have told me 12 weeks ago that I'd have got through all the health things and I'd be leaving the job that made me so stressed and starting something I really wanted to do I think I'd have laughed."
You don't need to suffer alone. Therapy can help. 
I provide sessions for £35 – online or face-to-face from my private, comfortable counselling room, with a FREE mini-session to see if we click.
